Polyamory is unnatural! Monogamy is unnatural! These are the two most common arguments I hear in any debate on the topic. It’s maddening. Why should either of the two options be “wrong” or “unnatural”?

About: I am the ripe age of 21 years, defined by society as a sexual deviant, and loving every minute of it.
Education... Well, I would have to say that I am an aspiring English Teacher. I am a Sophomore in college, and I'm hoping that one day soon I can graduate with my full degree. My minor is creative writing.
I have always been a writer. I remember being elven years old, sitting in my living room with one of those old styled typewriters because we didn't own a computer at the time, typing furiously away at some idea I had. I love writing fiction, or articles that relate to real life. I find it my goal to educate through my writing, or entertain people with my writing. It is my joy, my passion, my love.
I suppose that in my small autobiography here, I should mention that I am a very blessed person. I have a circle of friends who are very supportive of me, of my writing, of my life in general. I have Eric, my boyfriend who greets me every morning with a smile. With him, I always feel wanted and loved. I have Airen and Sigel who have shared with me a broad view of new experiences, but have always respected my comfort level. Airen is the reason I submitted to EdenCafe. She has been a wonderful supporter of my writing, even though I find it lacking. It has been said that, “you are your worst critic”, and it rings true. If I'm having trouble with my writing, and I'm upset, Airen always has a “pick me up”. Sigel is there for me as an emotional leaning post. He listens to me complain, cry, throw a tantrum. Whatever I need at the time. And he always knows the right thing to say. These three people are, besides my mother, the most important people in my life.See Authors Posts (4) in Couples, Personal Thoughts and Sharing, Relationships
Emotionally and mentally abusive. That’s a string of words that I thought I would never pair together. However, it took a good friend of mine, and an hour of crying, to realize exactly what was going on.

About: I'm a young 22 year old with hopes and dreams of practicing medicine, or becoming a sex therapist. I have 4 cats, and I'm obsessed with the color pink. I found EdenFantasys by mistake, and I look at it as one of the biggest blessings. It is like I found this site when I needed most. I suffer from depression, ADD, and Vaginismus. So, my mood is highly unpredictable. Eden fantasys have helped me discover my sexuality, and what makes my toes curl. Me and my boyfriend are closer than we've ever been. I'm learning to write phenomenal reviews, and I hope to learn to write remarkable articles. I'm learning to love my body, and to be open about my fears and insecurities. I spend about 18hours a day on this site. I'm obsessed with sex and have sex toys on the brain 24 hours a day. I'm open to learning, so if you have something to teach me, PLEASE feel free to contact me.See Authors Posts (8) in Friendship, LGBQT, Relationships, Sexuality
I ran into her with a group of friend. We didn’t talk, and all we said to each other was “Hello”, nothing more, nothing less. We only were around each other because we had the same group of friends. She, by far, was one of the most beautiful women I had ever seen.

Communication is a pretty universally accepted ingredient in a healthy relationship. Even couples who’ve been together for a long time or who know each other well sometimes have things they need to tell their partners that they’ve learned about themselves. Sometimes, though, it isn’t an easy subject to broach, especially if it’s something you haven’t fully come to terms with yourself, or something you think might make your partner uncomfortable.
